For me its about 8 lbs of water. Why does this happen?

I am wondering the same.
add aromatasing AAS some 19nor's like nandrolone + creatine and we got us a Michelin man.
I have been very fortunate that peps only cause me to retain intra-muscular water, so you will never hear me complain although taking a break means losing some weight and fullness... So maybe you will hear me complain after the fact.
I too bloat up.
Couple things I have found that help tremendously. Vit C 3 or 4 grams spread throughout the day helps as a diuretic. Actually bought a natural water pil and it works even better.
Water build up also increases my blood pressure quite a bit with a bit of chest pain. The water pill solved both in just 2 days.
What works as good or better for me is only eating veggies and fruit for carbs. If I eat grains, cereal or oats wham the bloat comes on harder.
I'm very carb restricted so that's not a problem. I'm going to hold off on using peps for a few more bf points.
I take Vitamin C to relieve the water retention. I also bloat up when I eat grains. You're right, paleo diet is good for this kind of situation.
Water retention is the reason why we look bloat. Do not worry as it only stays there for quite a while. It will definitely fade away. if you want to get rid of it fast, then lower your daily dose.
8 lbs seem to be too much. Anyway, I guess you are running a higher dose than what I am currently running. Feeling or looking bloat is normal for peptides and hgh users due to the water retention. It should not last permanently though. You can lower your dose if water retention is already too much.
It is a normal side effect, honey. Also, do not stop using hgh just because of bloating. If you do that, then you'll just prolong the waiting period for you to get the best results of hgh. Anyway, if I were you, I would just watch my diet and sodium intake. Also, I would focus on cardio exercise to lessen the bloating.
Oh shoot! 8 pounds of water is a little too much. Don't you mind telling us your current dose so we can give you some tips on how to reduce your water retention?
Anyway, you can try reducing your dose and see if it helps. You can go back to your normal dose once your bloating gets better.
It is because of the water retention. I think most of us here are already aware that water retention is one of the side effects that we have to face when we start using peptides.
